Changing anthropogenic influence on the Santa Monica Bay watershed     

Dojiri M  Yamaguchi M  Weisberg SB  Lee HJ 《Marine environmental research》2003,56(1-2):1-14

Santa Monica Bay is an open coastal embayment located directly seaward of Los Angeles, California. The Bay provides vital economic value through its water-dependent activities, such as swimming, diving, boating, and fishing. An increase from 100,000 residents in 1900 to 10 million in 2000 has imposed numerous environmental stressors on the Bay, including urbanization of the watershed. Pollutant discharges into the Bay increased throughout the early part of the century, but declined following passage of the Clean Water Act in 1972. Since that time, the predominant source of pollutant inputs has changed from point sources to non-point urban runoff. To assess how present-day and historical pollution interact to affect the environmental quality of Santa Monica Bay, three organizations collaborated on a multi-disciplinary study in 1997, towards which this volume is focused. This paper details the temporal patterns of anthropogenic influence on Santa Monica Bay to provide context for the papers that follow.  相似文献   

陕西泾河南岸大堡子高速远程黄土滑坡运动过程模拟     

沈伟  翟张辉  李同录  赵权利  汪发武 《工程地质学报》2016,24(6):1309-1317

高速远程滑坡具有速度快、运程远的特点,一旦发生,人员逃离十分困难,往往造成严重灾难,因此对这类滑坡展开研究具有重要意义。对已发生滑坡运动过程进行参数反演和模拟可为潜在高速远程滑坡的预测提供借鉴。因此本文以陕西泾河南岸大堡子高速远程黄土滑坡为例,在野外调查测绘和室内试验的基础上,利用Sassa的滑坡运动模型对该滑坡运动过程进行模拟分析。结果表明,滑坡体最大平均速度为9.56m·s-1,具有高速运动特点,运动持时为24.5s,滑坡运动过程可分为启动加速阶段（0~5.7s）和运动减速阶段（5.7~24.5s）,加速阶段平均加速度为1.68m·s-2,减速阶段加速度为-0.51m·s-2,加速过程比减速快3倍左右。滑坡区高陡地形和黄土高结构强度为滑坡高速运动提供条件,开阔阶地地形以及阶地砂砾石层近饱和含水条件决定滑坡远程运动特点。  相似文献   

库水位涨落条件下不同结构边坡的变形破坏机制分析——以千将坪滑坡和树坪滑坡为例     

汪发武  宋琨 《工程地质学报》2021,29(3):575-582

三峡水库自2003年蓄水后,在长江干流和支流发生了不同程度的边坡变形和破坏。有些变形缓慢并对房屋和道路造成损坏,有些产生高速运动并引发涌浪,造成惨重人员伤亡。本文从库岸边坡的结构着眼,以千将坪滑坡和树坪滑坡为例,通过现场调查、现场长期观测、室内简易模型试验,分析库水位涨落条件下不同结构边坡的变形破坏机制,为库区运营过程中滑坡灾害防控提供科学依据。结果表明,顺层结构边坡在水位上升过程中易失稳,并产生高速滑动;而松散结构边坡受渗透力影响,在水位下降过程中易产生明显变形,且变形速率与水位下降速度呈正相关关系。  相似文献   

海底滑坡在太平洋的发育程度和经济意义     

Lee  HJ 汪发武 《世界地质》1991,10(1):185-186

覆盖着三分之一地球表面,从赤道一直延伸到高纬度的太平洋,包含着许多易于产生海底滑坡的环境要素。这些要素的破坏导致了滑坡,成为一种将大量沉积物从海滨送到深水区的地质作用,并且对滨海和海岸的发展构成危险。海底滑坡也会造成人身伤亡。通过以下现象的观察可以确定和鉴别太平洋的海底滑坡:(1)海滨线和海岸建筑物破坏;(2)通讯电缆等滨海建筑物遭到破坏;(3)海底地貌在短时间内发生变化;(4)在高分辨率的声学剖面上具有特定的海底地貌特征。通过对由以上这些观察所发现的几个滑坡的研究可以使我们清楚地弄清楚这些滑坡的分布、规模和地貌特征。对海滨线和海岸建筑物造成直接影响的几个滑坡实例中,发生在不列颠哥伦比亚(加拿大)的Howe Sound的粗粒扇形三角洲中的滑坡属其中之一;另一起发生在不  相似文献

Critical Self-Organization of Astrophysical Shocks     

Malkov MA  Diamond PH  Völk HJ 《The Astrophysical journal》2000,533(2):L171-L174

There are two distinct regimes of the first-order Fermi acceleration of shocks. The first is a linear (test-particle) regime in which most of the shock energy goes into thermal and bulk motions of the plasma. The second is an efficient regime in which the shock energy goes into accelerated particles. Although the transition region between them is narrow, we identify the factors that drive the system toward a self-organized critical state between those two regimes. Using an analytic solution, we determine this critical state and calculate the spectra and maximum energy of accelerated particles.  相似文献   

A trophic model for the Danshuei River Estuary, a hypoxic estuary in northern Taiwan   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Lin HJ  Shao KT  Jan RQ  Hsieh HL  Chen CP  Hsieh LY  Hsiao YT 《Marine pollution bulletin》2007,54(11):1789-1800

The estuary of the Danshuei River, a hypoxic subtropical estuary, receives a high rate of untreated sewage effluent. The Ecopath with Ecosim software system was used to construct a mass-balanced trophic model for the estuary, and network analysis was used to characterize the structure and matter flow in the food web. The estuary model was comprised of 16 compartments, and the trophic levels varied from 1.0 for primary producers and detritus to 3.0 for carnivorous and piscivorous fishes. The large organic nutrient loading from the upper reaches has resulted in detritivory being more important than herbivory in the food web. The food-chain length of the estuary was relatively short when compared with other tropical/subtropical coastal systems. The shortness of food-chain length in the estuary could be attributed to the low biomass of the top predators. Consequently, the trophic efficiencies declined sharply for higher trophic levels due to low fractions of flows to the top predators and then high fractions to detritus. The low biomass of the top predators in the estuary was likely subject to over-exploitation and/or hypoxic water. Summation of individual rate measurements for primary production and respiration yielded an estimate of −1791 g WW m⁻² year⁻¹, or −95 g C m⁻² year⁻¹, suggesting a heterotrophic ecosystem, which implies that more organic matter was consumed than was produced in the estuary.  相似文献

Influence of strong monsoon winds on the water quality around a marine cage-culture zone in a shallow and semi-enclosed bay in Taiwan   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Huang YC  Huang SC  Meng PJ  Hsieh HJ  Chen CA 《Marine pollution bulletin》2012,64(4):851-860

Influences of marine cage culture and monsoonal disturbances, northeasterly (NE) and southwesterly (SW) monsoons on the proximal marine environment were investigated across a gradient of sites in a semi-enclosed bay, Magong Bay (Penghu Islands, Taiwan). Elevated levels of ammonia produced by the cages were the main pollutant and distinguished the cage-culture and intermediary zones (1000 m away from the cages) from the reference zone in the NE monsoon, indicating currents produced by the strong monsoon may have extended the spread of nutrient-enriched waters without necessarily flushing such effluents outside Magong Bay. Moreover, the levels of chlorophyll-a, dissolved oxygen, and turbidity were distinguishable between two seasons, suggesting that resuspension caused by the NE monsoon winds may also influence the water quality across this bay. It indicated that the impacts of marine cage culture vary as a function of distance, and also in response to seasonal movements of water driven by local climatic occurrences.  相似文献
